Abstract
- Objective: To explore the curative effect of surgery and selerotherapy for massive venous malformations of the tongue.<br />Methods: From January 2005 to December 2014, subtotal resection or debulking for 15 cases of massive venous malformation in the tongue was undertaken with multiple sessions of pre- and post-operative injection therapy of pingyangmycin, lauromacrogol and absolute ethanol.<br />Results: All signs associated with the lesions including eating, sleep and speech disorders disappeared after treatment. Complete or near complete resolution was achieved in 9 cases, and a significant reduction in size in a further 6 cases after surgical excision and peri-operative sclerotherapy.<br />Conclusions: For massive venous malformations of the tongue, surgical excision combined with multiple sessions of sclerotherapy is a good treatment option.
